My junior daughter called me from downstairs, so I poked my head out of my room to see what she was going on.

"Right now, your temperature is 37.6 degrees"

"Oh, that has come. Is there anything else?"

"No, it's just that when I thought it was hot today, it was my body that was heated"

"Turn on the air conditioner and go back to sleep"

The day before yesterday, she had a vaccination at the university, and she seems to have had an adverse reaction within the expected range.

For my wife and I, it was just a matter of 'aching arms', but my teenage daughter seems to have been experiencing the phenomenon of 'fever' since the first session, as I had obtained beforehand.

This information was basically the same as what was announced in advance on NHK news, etc., so I didn't panic.

However, this issue panicked me.

My mother, who is in a nursing home, was hospitalized in an emergency immediately after the first round of vaccinations.

This is a bit complicated (and probably useful information), so I'll talk more about it later, but in conclusion

(1) The hospital's diagnosis that adverse reactions such as "anaphylaxis" were not the cause, and the doctor's opinion of "No one can deny that vaccination may have been a trigger"

(2) Interviews by me (Ebata) with doctors, facility staff, and care managers after my mother was discharged from the hospital.

(3) Discussion with my sister using the report (memo) that I wrote down all the advantages and disadvantages.

Based on the above, I made a last-minute decision and gave the "go" for my mother's second vaccination.

Of course, my decision may end up killing my mother as well as my father.

I will ask my mother to give up the 'bad luck of having such a son.

I believe that many people are confused about the new Corona vaccination.

I am proud to say that I did the best research and study I could (from the information Dr. Shibata gave me), but still--

At least, I know that the fear of giving someone's life (parents, etc.) except just for my life, is a terrible thing.

But still, we have to make decisions for our own lives and the lives of others. Now is the time.
